On the Run

Chapter Thirty Four

Epilogue

Harry chatted eagerly with Ron, Hermione, Neville and Ginny before the feast began. He was excited for the summer. Sirius had been staying at Hogwarts in Remus' guest bed room since he'd left Ministry custody. He'd also been searching for a house, and had informed Harry a few days earlier that he'd found one. To Harry's utter annoyance, Sirius would not tell him a thing about the new house, the location of the house or anything. Sirius just grinned every time Harry asked about it.

Plans had been made for the summer for a cook out with the Weasley's so Sirius could meet them.

Dumbledore stood and called out some gibberish words to get every ones attention. "A year has gone by so quickly. It seems only yesterday that the doors to Hogwarts opened for the new year and now that year has gone by and everyone will be returning home to their families for the summer holiday. I wish you all a wonderful holiday break and look forward to seeing you next year. Let the end of the year feast commence." Food appeared on the plates in front of everyone and everyone began to eat and chat.

(The next afternoon)

"So, we'll see you in a few weeks?" Ron asked as he packed his trunk.

"You had better." Harry warned with a grin. Ron grinned back. Harry closed his trunk, having finished his packing. "I'll be back in a little bit." Ron looked curious but nodded.

Harry left the Gryffindor Tower and took the familiar trail to the Headmaster's office. Finding the ugly gargoyle he said the password and almost ran to the headmaster's door before knocking. "Come in!" Came Dumbledore's voice.

Harry slowly opened the door and entered the round office. "Hello, Headmaster. I just came to say thank you – for everything this year."

Dumbledore smiled his eyes twinkling madly. "Your welcome Harry. Have a pleasant summer with Sirius."

Harry nodded and bid the headmaster a good summer and left his office.

Harry returned to Gryffindor Tower and spent the next hour talking with Ron and Hermione. Hermione talked about a vacation her parent's had planned to America. Harry told her things about where he lived and things that were different like terminology. He highly recommended her learning to surf.

The time came for Ron and Hermione to board the Hogwarts Express. Harry followed them to the station to bid them good bye.

"Mr. Potter." A voice behind him said. Harry turned around and came face to face with Professor Severus Snape. "I expect you to report to my office September the first so I can give you a schedual for your lessons." He said sternly.

"Yes, sir." Harry said as he grinned. He enjoyed his lessons with Professor Snape and was glad he could continue them.

"Have a pleasant summer, Mr. Potter." Professor Snape said before he turned around.

Harry called after him. "You too, Professor. And thank you." Professor Snape paused in his walking, but continued a moment later.

Harry returned to Gryffindor Tower. "Are you ready to leave?" Sirius asked as he entered the dorm room Harry had used for the past school year.

Harry nodded and grinned excitedly.

They flooed to somewhere called Beerwah Pub. Harry was confused by this name but repeated the name and flooed to the destination. Sirius helped him to his feet after he'd fallen out of the fire place. "You okay?" Sirius asked looking Harry over.

"Yeah," Harry said as he picked up his book bag and suite case. Sirius took his own suit case and Harry's second. "I have never gotten the hang of flooing." Harry informed his godfather.

Sirius grinned. "Your Mum hated floo travel. She had the best balance out of anyone, but she lost it all with flooing. She never understood how your father could floo so gracefully. Ironically, he was the clumsiest person I knew."

Harry also grinned, he loved hearing about his parents. "So can we head to our new home now?"

Sirius laughed light heartedly and motioned for Harry to follow him. They got into a cab and drove for about fifteen minutes before it finally stopped outside a house.

Harry got out of the cab as Sirius paid the driver and eyed the house in front of him. It was fairly large, two stories. It wasn't too big, but it was comfortable. He knew they were near the ocean because he could smell it in the air, it was definitely a smell he missed. "This it?" He asked as Sirius came up beside him as the cab drove away.

"Yup, what do you think?" Sirius asked eyeing Harry.

Harry grinned. "It looks great from the outside. So where are we?"

Sirius also grinned proudly and began to walk up the drive way, Harry followed. "We're in Australia." Sirius answered as he opened the door and let Harry enter before him. "We're in a city called Beerwah, in Queensland, Australia. This house is on five acres of land, and Dumbledore placed plenty of protective charms over it. This house has six rooms a dining room, kitchen, four bathrooms, a library and living room and basement." Sirius finished as he led Harry around the house.

"And this," Sirius said as they came to stop at a door at the top of the stairs. "is my room." Sirius opened the door so Harry could get a look inside. Sirius then led Harry to another door, next to his. "This is your room." Harry looked at the name plate on the door, Burrow, it said and it also had an illustration of a white puppy next to it.

Opening the door Harry gasped, surprised. There was a large four poster bed, beautiful wood dresser and book case. There were two doors which Sirius informed him belonged to a closet and bathroom. There was also a small balcony overlooking the property. Sirius had already decorated some. There were pictures of Sirius and Harry that were taken as Harry had been growing up. There were already a few books in the book case as well as a few things Harry recognized from their old house. "Do you like it?" Sirius asked smiling proudly.

"I love it!" Harry said grinning broadly.

Sirius pulled Harry into a tight hug. After releasing him he glanced around the room. "I'll go get your things so you can unpack. Then I'll get onto dinner, you go ahead and explore."

Harry nodded gratefully. Looking around the room again he sighed. He was very happy, happier then he'd been in a long time. He now had Sirius back. They had a new, permanent home. He couldn't ask for more.
